In place of the traditional view that raids and invasion from the north introduced new weapons and chariots to the Shang (c. 1200 BC), we argue that archaeological evidence illustrates the presence of several regional groups at or near the late Shang centre, Anyang. Here we review burial practices at Anyang dating to the late second millennium BC, and describe a substantial group of prone burials that reflect a ritual practice contrasting with that of the predominant Shang elite. Such burials occur at all social levels, from victims of sacrifice to death attendants, and include members of lower and higher elites. Particularly conspicuous are chariot drivers in some chariot pits. An elite-level link with chariots is confirmed by the burial of a military leader in tomb M54 at Huayuanzhuang at Anyang, with tools that match exactly those of chariot drivers. Given that prone burial is known to the north, in the Mongolian region that provided chariots and horses to the Shang, a route can be traced eastwards and southwards, down the Yellow River, and then through mountain basins to Anyang. Our inference is that a group originally from outside the Central Plains can be identified in these distinctive burials. This marks a first step towards understanding the heterogeneity in the central population of the late Shang.

This paper presents a study of free-standing Bronze Age megalithic monuments across western Scotland: Argyll, Lochaber, Kintyre, and the isles of Mull, Coll and Tiree. The original project was designed to unearth the locational choices of their builders, the reasons for these choices, and what they reveal about the belief systems of these societies. Using statistical analyses and 2D and 3D GIS, it will be demonstrated that vision is the main force behind locational decisions. The GIS analyses revealed that the builders chose a particular horizon shape, defined by qualities of distance, direction and relative apparent height as viewed from the monument (altitude). Significantly, approximately half the sites have the same locational variables as all the sites considered on the isles of Coll and Tiree (labelled ‘classic sites’: Higginbottom et al. in J Archaeol Method Theory 22:584–645, 2015. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10816-013-9182-7), while the other half are the topographical reverse (‘reverse sites’), where the major ‘astronomical show’ differs due to the topographical differences between the site types. It is relevant to note that landscapes that block views of particular major astronomical phenomena in the south are significantly more common at reverse sites than at classic sites. Specific results pertaining to individual areas will also be highlighted. It will be seen that the interplay between the astronomy and the topographical choices of the builders at each site highlights possible cosmological ideologies that can be observed and that were shared across western Scotland.
本文介绍了一项横跨苏格兰西部的独立青铜器时代巨石纪念碑的研究:阿盖尔、洛查伯、金泰尔以及马尔、科尔和蒂里岛。最初的项目旨在揭示他们的建设者的位置选择，这些选择的原因，以及他们揭示了这些社会的信仰体系。使用统计分析和2D和3D GIS，将证明视觉是定位决策背后的主要力量。GIS分析显示，建筑商选择了一个特定的地平线形状，由距离、方向和从纪念碑(高度)看的相对表观高度的质量来定义。值得注意的是，大约一半的遗址与科尔岛和特里岛的所有遗址具有相同的位置变量(标记为“经典遗址”:Higginbottom et al. J Archaeol Method Theory 22:58 84 - 645, 2015)。https://doi.org/10.1007/s10816-013-9182-7)，而另一半则是地形相反(“反向地点”)，其中主要的“天文显示”由于地点类型之间的地形差异而不同。值得注意的是，在南方，阻挡特定主要天文现象的景观在反向地点比在经典地点更为常见。与个别领域有关的具体结果也将突出显示。我们可以看到，在每个地点，建筑师的天文学和地形选择之间的相互作用突出了可能的宇宙学意识形态，这些意识形态可以被观察到，并在苏格兰西部共享。
